Hi, Please may I join in.
I will mostly be lurking but have tried your schedule for the last 2 weeks and some of your hints tips have really transformed the way I clean! I don't seem to be spending anywhere near as much time cleaning and yet my home looks better than it has in years. I absolutely adore the 15 min thing with a timer, especially on a "can't be bothered" day. I was actually looking for things to clean on Saturday lol, because I still had time left in my 15mins.
So big Thank you to whom ever(sp?) came up with that little gem of an idea.
